All kidding aside, he's still got a little juice left in the tank - but coming off multiple Achilles' injuries, you have to wonder how long he can play effectively. He's already starting to slide, when the decline phase hits, it's often not pretty. Still, the cost is probably so low, there's little risk - other than bad play, of course.

The draft pick of Kolton Miller is really going to be scrutinized - because staying at 15 and going Tremaine Edmunds or LVE was the alternative most discussed. That's probably the bigger issue when it's all said & done.

It already wasn't last year.

Yeah, the question is, can he even play at 2017 level? As bad as that sounds, as he wasn't the old D-Johnson, even 2017 DJ would upgrade that LB corps. If it's more decline though....ugly. So little risk price-wise, I get that - but if Miller doesn't work out, and Edmunds/LVE do, man, that's going to haunt that D for at least 3+ years (Rd1 whiffs / missed opps having 3+ year ripple effects).
